My girls love it
We got this for them for Christmas and it is still played with 18 months later. I agree with the reviewer who wished for more clothes. Part of ours are missing ( I belive my husband accidentally threw them away) and as such I wish I could get more.
Cute... but not fun for long!
My daughter received two sets of these dolls, as gifts, when she was 4. They do make a tasteful, fun-looking present. (Notice how many positive reviews are from the gift-givers, not parents!) However, the fun is short lived. Here's why:
1. They don't work all that well. The dolls don't stand up in their stands. The clothes fall off and don't fit well into their box for clean-up time. It's frustrating.
2. The dolls aren't very fun to imagine with because of their shape can't stand up, sit down or bend over. They aren't a nice shape to cuddle with or carry around. So, they don't work as dolls to play with, only to look at.
3. Although there are a fair amount of clothes included, kids can't make any new ones. Making the clothes is really the fun and educational element of real paper dolls--not just putting the clothes on.
4. Lastly, after not all that much use, the magnetic backing pulled off the clothes. We ended up just tossing them.
So, what do I suggest? Just get out your art supplies and old magazines and have fun making paper dolls instead of buying these!

Wonderful & fun!
I got this for my 3 year old niece. She loves it and requests that it go with her all the time. The box to hold all the pieces is handy, the magnets are easy and there's lots of variations of outfits. Having 2 dolls makes it easy for friends, parents etc to play along and interact. The only cons I see is that the box with all the pieces is a bit heavy, it could use a handle. And the magnets are strong but sometimes the pieces slip a bit. All in all, a great gift and toy!
